NOTE TO N. V. PETROVSKAYA
June 12, 1919
You write that you can and even "will have the right" to reproach
me for untruth if I do not confirm that you visited me in prison 22 years ago. I apologize for having forgotten
much from that time, but my sister confirms definitely, and I
remember that there were visits,—please excuse me for forgetting the last name. Therefore, in no case should anyone
have the right to reproach you on the basis of my poor memory. I hope
you will excuse me for not being able to receive you, due to
a number of particularly urgent matters.
Sincerely respecting you
V. Ulyanov (Lenin)
